[ laughter ] >> i know. >> jimmy: come on! arianna grande crushing it

that's a great impression. >> unbelievable. but you know, you should know that it was sort of the beginning of a lot of cool things that happened for me. because, i don't know. i sort of, you know, i was going through a dead zone. and not much was going on. and then, arianna did this imitation on your show, and you encouraged her and then, this ball got rolling. i mean, you know, my friend who's like her age, teresa, she was like, "hey, you know, you should dm arianna and just say, you know, because i thought it was such a good imitation. and i was like, "no, she's got like 260 million followers." those are robots the robots answer the dms and we will never ever get to her ever and then, i did it anyway. and then, this response came back and then, next thing you know, i was going to her house getting fit for a wardrobe fitting for "thank you, next." so it was all because of

i was just trying to think of something that sounded believable i had partial hip problems, you know, where i couldn't turn. [ laughter ] i don't know i came up with all these weird things but then, mike just that, "are you afraid?" and i was like, "oh, jesus, he's on to me. and then, i still thought of trying to get out of it. but then, i was over at my friend's chase's house one day and she goes, "are you going to hawaii to do that job with mike?" i said, "no, i'm not i'm not doing it." and then, she said, "you know what you're an idiot. and guess what, you're insane and you're going." and you know, just sort of, a girlfriend sort of talked me off, out of my insanity. because you know when you're actors, this big moment can happen sometimes and then you just blow it and you go, "yeah, i'm going to do that next year i'm going to go on a trip. you just blow it somehow >> jimmy: yeah >> and for whatever reason, a good friend -- >> jimmy: just said, "hey, go do it. snap out of it."
